And there’s much more coverage in the works! We’re very excited, and so grateful for all the attention the book—and by extension the book’s characters—and the story of Hurricane Katrina and New Orleans—is getting.

Josh’s book tour starts Wednesday, with a stop in Austin, and then on to Houston, and of course New Orleans, where he’ll be celebrating A.D.’s release with some of the book’s subjects, as well as SMITH editor Larry Smith. Then we return to NYC for the Idlewild Books release party/benefit. If you’re going to be in either NOLA or NYC on the respective dates, here are links to the two parties (where you’ll be asked to RSVP):

We hope you like the A.D. hardcover—if you do, please spread the word to friends, family, book groups, and those with a special interest in New Orleans and the Gulf Coast region. We look forward to seeing you at one or more of the events!
